And a quote from N.N. Light’s review:

“Pauline Baird Jones is a gifted author and has penned a story any sci-fi fan would love. Plenty of action and intrigue, not to mention witty dialogue, makes this a can’t put down gem. Highly recommend!” 5 Stars For General’s Holiday!

Here is the blurb for Fais Do Do Die!

He kicks down doors, and she serves hors d’oeuvres. And the Big Uneasy delivers them both a huge helping of high stakes danger—and a chance at romance.

A happy ending skeptic and caterer, Sarah Burland has a high profile gig at a fundraiser. It’s a coup for her catering company until murder kills the party spirit and triggers a hostage situation. 

SWAT Team Member Calvin Baker’s job cost him his marriage. He’s done with romance—even if he does find himself taking an interest in a family friend, Sarah, from time to time. He’s sure his feelings are platonic until he finds out she’s caught in a hostage situation. 

Cal’s team affects a rescue, but Sarah’s troubles aren’t over. The victim’s friends—and enemies—keep trouble cooking, and the deeper they dig, the more confusing things get—and the more their attraction to each other grows.

Can the cook and the cop survive long enough to work out their differences? Take a ride into another installment in the engaging Big Uneasy series and find out!

And a quote from N.N. Light’s review:

“If you’re looking for a side-splitting cozy mystery with an unlikely romance, pick up Fais Do Do Die. Think Agatha Christie meets The Sopranos. Highly recommend!” 

I can’t thank N.N. Light enough! It’s a bright light at the end of the 2020 tunnel!

Perilously yours,

Pauline
